Zoey's week... and update on the us part...

Just a few happenings around the Mattes house... sorry for no post last Monday.. that video was just too cute.. and since now she does it everyday i feel ok pushing it down on the blog...

A girl and her dada...

Zoey and her "og" (dog)

Zoey learned "so big" this week... a couple action shots...She can also give high fives...

Zoey sat on the couch by herself to drink her bottle.. she's getting too big!(don't worry i was next to her)

Such a tiring week!Yes, she fell asleep on the floor..

Update of us: - Gary's soccer season is over.. and ended a lot better than we expected, they made it to the regional semifinals! woohoo! it is definitely nice to have Gary home afterschool, especially since he gets to pick up zoey and get a little daddy/daughter time! - We have now officially lived in our house a year.. and while we still love it we are constantly figuring out ways to make it more and more like home.. i guess that will never end. Our (Gary's) next big project is a deck outside... - I am already counting down till summer..61 days left ... Ever since Zoey it has been soo much more difficult to go to work everyday and deal with annoying kids knowing that i don't find my own to be annoying...i wish i could stay home with here.. but remind myself that it is good for her to be social.. and daycare has been a great thing for her. - Gary and i have both kept our new year's resolutions to shed a few unwanted pounds.. both of us were still carrying "baby" weight around so we figured it was no longer acceptable for us to use the excuse that I had just had a baby! I have lost 14lbs and gary 20lbs! but more importantly than how much i've lost...drum roll please... i can fit into PRE-PREGNANCY PANTS! woohoo for me and woohoo for us... now all i want to do i eat a big bowl of ice cream in celebration..
